Empires

5622

Empires have emerged from the deep freeze of Chicago with a collection of tunes imbued with a thick-skinned Midwestern charm. "Orphan" - the band's upcoming album on Chop Shop / Island Records has producer John Congleton (St. Vincent, The Black Angels, Explosions in the Sky) at the helm, perfectly capturing a band needing to give it their all. Empires is out on the road this winter & spring - with stops at SXSW and various festivals - introducing songs from the new album, including the debut track 'How Good Does It Feel'
